The "free" tarp?

[cyndi]

Therre's no way to police that, Danny. Suffice to say that our tribe is filled with generous people and I've seen items picked up from the tarp, by someone that wanted it, then passed on to someone in need.

We've had people that scarfed items, too. Thankfully, not as many of those. I only remember one instance in five years.

Maybe have a bulletin board where people could write down what they need help with. Then the giver could decide if they want to participate. It could be something like I would like help building a bed, or I could use a better sleeping bag, whatever. It could even be that a group of people would be willing to pool their resources to help someone.

At the daily circle, Bob makes announcements for things like that. Jot down the info and hand it to him.

We do that with morning announcements!

Anybody that is willing to do work and anyone who needs stuff done is more than welcome to speak up.

And that pooling of resources...oh yeah...there's lots of that going on.

Heck it took borrowing a stepladder from one person and then at least 3 others with loans of tools and advice to get my roof vent put in...and that's in addition to some wonderful work by Justin.

You should see what happens when someone starts working on electric or solar installs....

Solar? Did someone say solar?

Better bring beer.

Oh beer I can do. Of course there is the matter of the two extra solar panels.......
